Images of items I have purchased (except trainers [no feet pics])

The large pane of glass is a sealed, double glazed unit. It was chosen for its aesthetics and to let in natural light. As with most houses we also have a similar arrangement with a number of things called windows.

If someone wants to break in they will break in regardless of what door, window, alarm system, dog or goose you have on your property. We are also lucky to live in a low crime rate area. I know some people aren't so lucky but It's certainly not a big enough consideration to stop me buying the door and "look" I want

I've got the base spec M1 and it performs really well, but I do need more than 8GB it seems. Have a 16GB on order and will return this when that arrives.

What makes you think that? I'm reading conflicting reports, some folk saying you need 16GB, others saying 99% of people don't need more than 8GB.

Switching between apps when I have a fair amount open (mail, 4-5 safari tabs, teams, Spotify, 2-3 excel spreadsheets, WhatsApp, finder) you notice some delay/pop-in when those apps and their content is pulled from swap back into memory. This can also cause animations (swiping between full screen apps) to be a little jerky. The pop in can also be a bit jarring.

The system although it has 8GB RAM, seems to leave 1-1.5GB free at all times, I guess it would be for GPU VRAM.

Check out this swap. The web app where I am doing some dev work is caning my memory.
